The Good Life

The following equipment is nearing replacement:

March 19

Run
  • 36m 58s
  • 5.09 miles
  • 07m 16s /Mi

An OK run, although for these last few runs I've been feeling a little run down. Could be part cumulative fatigue, part temperature change. Would it be blasphemous of me to say I miss my 30-40 degree running temps?

Swim
  • 24m 46s
  • 1859.14 yards
  • 01m 19s /100 yards

As with my run earlier, I wasn't feeling particularly strong for this, but I managed to still eek out a few yards in the pool. I'm not in any way concerned, but my strongest discipline, swimming, feels like my weakest link at the moment.

Extended my weekend by taking a day off from work. Part of a self imposed mental health day/get stuff done around the house with no distractions.

March 18

Bike
  • 1h 40m
  • 30.96 miles
  • 18.58 Mi/hr

I didn't realize how tired my legs were until I started pedaling. Took a while for legs to finally get into a grove. It was warm enough to ride outside today but I didn't want to deal with the 25mph wind, nor mess with changing out my trainer tire today.

March 17

Run
  • 1h 06m 49s
  • 9.00 miles
  • 07m 25s /Mi

Tough run. The middle three miles were on rolling hills and into a decent wind. Wiped me out, but we still got 'er done.

Sport
  • Walking
  • 20m

A walk around our neighborhood with our daughter including a stop at the park. Of course, if it were up to her we would have never walked and spent the whole evening at the park chasing her around.

After running I got lunch and then spent the next 3+ hours doing the first round of yard work of the year.

March 15

Bike
  • 1h 10m
  • 22.65 miles
  • 19.41 Mi/hr

NCAA tourney watching. Picked up the intensity every time the commercials came around, which was fairly frequent for the final minutes of a few games.

March 14

Run
  • 41m 46s
  • 5.79 miles
  • 07m 12s /Mi

A warm and windy run. Tried to run crosswind for as much of the run as I could. Half way through I shed my shirt because I was getting hot. By the way it's still technically winter.

March 13

Swim
  • 30m 58s
  • 2296.59 yards
  • 01m 21s /100 yards

A now rare Tuesday morning swim. There were actually open lanes this morning, and not occupied by a gym training group. My arms felt smooth and fluid through the water. Felt effortless. My lower back felt outta whack though - I think I slept funny last night. I think this caused my flipturns to be not so crisp and thus my exit off the wall to be slow - hence some slightly slower per 100 split times.

Bike
  • 1h 02m 43s
  • 20.00 miles
  • 19.13 Mi/hr
